GUSTAV JAHN (1879-1919) MURTAL - BAHN MURAU / WINTERSPORTPLATZ. Circa 1910. 40½x26½ inches, 102¾x67¼ cm. Christoph Reisser's Sohne, Vienna. Condition A-: minor abrasions at edges and in upper text; small repaired tears at top edge, with tape on verso. Paper. Gustav Jahn was a painter and poster designer as well as an avid mountaineer. Born and raised in Vienna, he was a star pupil at the Academy of Fine Arts. In addition to his paintings, he also designed more than two dozen posters for the Austrian State Railway. For many years, he provided illustrations for the catalogues of the Viennese sporting goods store Mitzi Langer, and many of his images of skiers and mountaineers graced their covers. Twelve of Jahn's large alpine landscape paintings were used to decorate the interior of the Austrian Government Building at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. "Apart from the Südbahn and the k.k. Staatsbahnen, Gustav Jahn designed posters for a number of small regional railway companies. In 1894 the Murtalbahn was opened between Unzmarkt in Styria and Mauterndorf in Salzburg . . . Murau is the main tourist destination on the Murtalbahn. Around 1910 it positioned itself as a winter resort for skiing and bobsleighing. Jahn depicted both sports on his poster" (Two Alpinists p. 10). Jahn died in a mountaineering accident on August 17, 1919.

It's also a part of the Hohe Tauern range, which is described by the text below as "one of the most beautiful glacier areas in the Alps."
